Psalms 19:1-7
11The heavens declare the glory of God; the sky displays his handiwork.
2Day after day it speaks out; night after night it reveals his greatness.
3There is no actual speech or word, nor is its voice literally heard.
4Yet its voice echoes throughout the earth; its words carry to the distant horizon. In the sky he has pitched a tent for the sun.
5Like a bridegroom it emerges from its chamber; like a strong man it enjoys running its course.
6It emerges from the distant horizon, and goes from one end of the sky to the other; nothing can escape its heat.
7The law of the Lord is perfect and preserves one’s life. The rules set down by the Lord are reliable and impart wisdom to the inexperienced.
